Townsville Show

There are so many things I love about the show…. bright lights, screams coming from above, smell of sweets and horse poo in the one breath, show jingles, clear winter sky against the vivid ride colours, cowboy hats, teenagers and elderly people…
As a photographer there is so much great content already going on, so many scenes that already look amazing… all I have to do is document it rather then create it. This is my 5th year in a row shooting at the show. Some years I have pre-organised people to shoot, other times I just shoot what is available. I nearly didn’t go this year as I felt tired and creatively drained… but I soldiered on and I am glad I did as it gave me more energy and inspiration then I had to begin with.
I met lots of interesting people and I only had one couple turn me down for photos which was fantastic! Thanks to all the new people I met on the weekend 🙂 Honey
